Chapter 801: Chapter 802: 60s Quadrangle Courtyard 50

When Yi Zhonghai and the others came out, they saw Sha Zhu lying motionless on the ground.

The Deaf Old Lady panicked and quickly ran over, "Sha Zhu, Sha Zhu, my dear grandson..."

Yi Zhonghai was completely flustered. With the future of his number one elderly care recipient, Jia Dongxu, uncertain, and now his second, He Yushui, like this, what should he do?

"Why didn’t you stop it?" Yi Zhonghai fiercely glared at the onlookers.

Xu Damao could talk tough earlier, but he dared not now.

Zhang Yu also remained silent. With so many onlookers, why should she stick her neck out, especially when she couldn’t tell how badly Sha Zhu was hurt but suspected it was serious.

If Xu Damao was silent, the rest were even more so, leaving only the sound of Sha Zhu’s constant cries of pain.

"Sha Zhu, Sha Zhu," Yi Zhonghai had no time to scold anyone with Sha Zhu needing attention.

"It hurts, First Elder, it hurts." Sha Zhu felt an immense pain.

First Elder quickly arranged for people to take Sha Zhu to the hospital. Zhang Yu knew that the commotion was over for now. As for what happens next, of course, they would only find out after they returned from the hospital.

"Zhang Yu, do you still have money on you?" Yi Zhonghai called out to Zhang Yu, hoping she would contribute some money.

"Doesn’t Sha Zhu have any money?"

"He earns over thirty a month, and he doesn’t spend much."

"Even if things are bad, there’s still the compensation from Lady Jia Zhang."

"Don’t talk about that now. Let me advance the money, and you tell me who will repay me later."

Zhang Yu shook her head, "Neither Sha Zhu nor Lady Jia Zhang has any credit with me. I have no confidence that money lent out will be returned."

"You, with a monthly income of over a hundred, how can you not have money?"

"Is it because you also have no confidence that you’ll get the money from Lady Jia Zhang?"

Zhang Yu chuckled, getting ready to leave, "By the way, Yi Zhonghai, don’t you start rallying everyone to donate later."

"How the incident happened and who committed the act—all are known, and the responsible party should bear the responsibility."

"Who doesn’t know about the good relationship between the Jia Family and Sha Zhu."

"Whether others donate is their own business, but I will not." Zhang Yu went back to pack her belongings.

The others also expressed, "We’re also not donating; we’ve never seen such a domineering person."

How Sha Zhu has helped the Jia Family, everyone sees it all. Just because Sha Zhu can no longer bring back leftovers, Lady Jia Zhang’s behavior is so outrageous—what are people supposed to think?

Since Lady Jia Zhang is ungrateful, why should they give her money?

"Master Yi, you earn a high salary, and Dongxu is your apprentice. You take responsibility."

Listening to everyone’s comments, Yi Zhonghai felt a chill in his heart. What to do? For the sake of the Jia Family, he had already spent quite a bit of money, and now it seemed he had to spend money on Sha Zhu as well.

"Sha Zhu, do you have any money?" Yi Zhonghai thought that Sha Zhu, being alone, wouldn’t have much expenditure and should have saved some money.

"I’m out of money, First Elder," Sha Zhu endured the pain, "Last time I took out everything I had when the Jia Family paid compensation."

"You, that’s all the savings you have," Yi Zhonghai went pale.

Sha Zhu was truly in a lot of pain, he had already tried very hard to endure it, "I, I, it’s not that—I, I loaned it, loaned it to Sister Qin."

Yi Zhonghai had purposely guided Sha Zhu to help out the Jia Family, so that he could lighten his own burden.

He originally intended to give the Jia Family some leftover food and borrow money occasionally, but he never expected to lend out a lot of money.

What could Yi Zhonghai do, call Sha Zhu stupid? Or say Qin Huairu is greedy? If Sha Zhu weren’t so gullible, how could he be swindled so easily?

No matter what, in the end, he was the one who shouldered everything, letting the First Elder go home to get one hundred yuan, and then headed to the hospital.

So, with much commotion, the group rushed Sha Zhu to the hospital. They also wanted to be the first to know Sha Zhu’s condition, and whether he had been turned into a eunuch.

When they were carrying Sha Zhu, they noticed that a certain part was bleeding.

As Zhang Yu heard everyone talking, her mouth shaped into an ’O’. Good heavens, even if Sha Zhu’s problem wasn’t serious this time, everyone would think the doctors took special care of him because of his status.

A crowd pouring out of the quadrangle was already eye-catching enough, and knowing that it was Sha Zhu who was sent to the hospital, everyone was naturally shocked and curious about the cause.

Upon learning that it was because he had been hit below by Lady Jia Zhang and that a certain part was bleeding, "Could he really become a eunuch?"

This thought was not unique to one person but shared by many, considering the bleeding, it was easy to infer the severity of the injury.

"Hard to say." No one knew the exact situation, and even those who didn’t get along with Sha Zhu hoped nothing was wrong with him.

Probably only Xu Damao and Zhang Yu were the happiest. The former was simply pleased whenever Sha Zhu was in misfortune.

The reason for Zhang Yu’s happiness was that if Sha Zhu became a eunuch, he definitely wouldn’t be able to bother Zhang Li. As for whether he’d become effeminate, that’s not something she needed to worry about.

As for whether he’d fall out with the Jia Family, just a few sobs from Qin Huairu might be enough for the fool Sha Zhu to actually forgive Lady Jia Zhang.

If Sha Zhu turned into a eunuch, he might feel staying with Qin Huairu was the best choice after Jia Dongxu’s death.

However, if Sha Zhu really forgave Lady Jia Zhang, could she go and inform He Daqing?

After all, he is the father of He Yuzhu and the siblings. With such a huge incident befalling his only son, it would be unreasonable not to notify him.

She knew where He Daqing worked and could write a letter directly to him, also suggesting that the house could be left to He Yushui for her to take a husband by marrying him into the family.

Otherwise, the house would end up with the Jia Family in the end. Why should they benefit?

Most importantly, with He Daqing’s return, Yi Zhonghai’s embezzlement could be exposed, and she looked forward to seeing how the hypocrite would try to wriggle his way out of it.

The more Zhang Yu thought about it, the happier she became, packing up her things energetically.

Zhang Li thought she was happy because Sha Zhu was in trouble, and since whatever made her sister happy made her glad too, the little girl shared in the joy.

People coming in and out seeing Zhang Yu’s undisguised smile knew why she was happy.

They were also happy, since Sha Zhu had relied on Yi Zhonghai’s influence and his position as a steel factory’s canteen chef to do many things that disgusted everyone in the quadrangle.

Now that he might possibly become a eunuch, how could they not be pleased? They were keen to burst into song.

If there was someone panicking at the moment, it certainly was Lady Jia Zhang.

Despite her ruthlessness when hitting Sha Zhu, never once going easy on him, she became agitated afterwards.

"Do you think Sha Zhu will sue us?"

"That girl earlier, will she go to the police?" More than Sha Zhu, Lady Jia Zhang was worried that Zhang Yu would call the cops, which would mean a hefty charge for her.

She absolutely could not go to prison. Otherwise, how could she trust the fox spirit Qin Huairu to keep hold of their home?

"Go and beg Sha Zhu not to report to the police." Lady Jia Zhang decided to pacify Sha Zhu.

"As long as he doesn’t report me, there will be no issue." As for Zhang Yu, if the main party wasn’t going to take action, why should an outsider care?
